So… church, eh? 😬
We get it. Walking into a spiritual space with a bunch of strangers can be overwhelming and super awkward. You’re likely wondering if we’re weird and if your kids will be safe and probably a million other anxiety-inducing questions. That is totally fair.
First off, Grassroots isn’t weird 🤪 and we absolutely prioritize your kids’ safety, ensuring all volunteers are vetted and have vulnerable sector checks. We invite you to keep exploring and/or connect with our pastor.

5 Years on from COVID – What it has Taught us for this Moment
Maybe I’m just getting old but time sure seems to be moving fast these days. My wife reminded me that this week marks the five-year anniversary of COVID being declared a global emergency. Five years! Remember trying to figure out what 6′ looked like for social distancing? Or the panic-buying of toilet paper? How we all got into baking sourdough bread like we were auditioning for a baking show and learned (some of us STILL learning) how to unmute ourselves on Zoom. Those were wild and unpredictable days. No one knew from one day to the next what the next new thing to be flung at us would look like.
But then something happened.
